Penn State Rules

[Rome]

Rivals has the whole class signed now.  Ed was right, naturally.

Sitting in Paterno's closet all morning appears to have paid off.

Woot!

Weird...

ESPN has much different ratings for PSU's recruits than Rivals or Scout.com

Walton the #1 OG in the country?  Evans #1 DE?

But Wallace only #7 CB?

Weird.  Brent Carter isn't even rated.

[ice grillin you]

most of these kids have never been seen by any of the recruting sites

many get stars assisgned strictly by who offers them

its the polar opposite of an exact science and in the end means very little...see tony hunt vs austin scott

if you go by g&w for example penn states class is insane....i believe they have every single one of their recruits in their top 100...or close to it

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

g&w?

[ice grillin you]

g&w recruiting report....a well known recruiting publication that supposedly is used by the schools themselves

[ice grillin you]

i was perusing different recruiting classes and came across florida states...they have some awesome names in their class


Mister Alexander
Caz Piurowski
D'Vontrey Richardson
Toddrick Verdell
Dekoda Watson.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

D'Vontrey Richardson

That might be a better D' name than D'Brickashaw.

[BigEd76]

Maryland has one named Pha'Terrell Washington

[SunMo]

these farging apostrophe names that look cute now are going to look awfully stupid when they're printed out on Social Security checks

[BigEd76]

LeSean McCoy to Miami

Rivals update on Hazelton:

According to national recruiting analyst Mike Farrell who spoke with Hazelton's father, the dad has not signed the letter-of-intent, which would make the document valid for the Trojans.

It is being reported that Hazelton will return back home to New York where his father would like to discuss with him his future plans and possibly a different school choice in the end. As for now, this deal has yet to be finished and the book has not yet closed.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I still can't see him going to PSU, or thriving there, because he obviously wants to go to USC.

[phattymatty]

I never even knew that your parents had to sign.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I never even knew that your parents had to sign.

Agree.  You'd think that if they're 18, they wouldn't need parental consent.

[SunMo]

so, pretty much everyone agrees that PSU will take a step back next year, the degree of that step is dependent on the play of Morelli and a young defense.

that being said, is it reasonable to say that with the '05 class and now the '06 class, they can be national title contenders in 2007 or 2008?
